If the current readings appear to be inaccurate even after you have completed the “Calibration, Rezero Current
Sensors” step above, or if voltage readings appear to be slightly different than another meter you are accustomed to, it is easy
to calibrate the eLogger readings to your other meter’s readings if desired. This is done by choosing “Advanced, Calibrate
Pack Voltage and Amperage” and entering the values your meter reads, and the eLogger reads. If you don’t desire to change
the calibration on, say, voltage, but wish to change it for amperage, just leave the voltage fields as 0, and the calibration for
voltage will not change. The eLogger is factory calibrated using a highly accurate current and voltage measurement tool.
If the eLogger appears to be reading highly inaccurate voltages or currents, the first thing to try is to clear all calibration.
This is done running the calibration tool as described above, but entering the same values for the problem measurement. For
example, if amperage is way off, enter the same value (say, 5.0) for both the eLogger amperage and the “my other meter”
amperage, which will clear all internal and user calibration.
Issue: the temperature appears to be logged incorrectly.
Solutions:
Make sure that the parameters you wish to log are checked under “Hardware, Choose Parameters to be logged in Recorder
Issue: Throttle Movements are not correct, or the throttle cannot be calibrated.
Solutions:
Ensure you have connected the Y cable as shown in Figure 1.
Complete the Throttle Calibration step as described above.
Make sure you are logging throttle movements in the eLogger.
Issue: The eLogger shuts off or the LED flashes rapidly when used with the GPS Expander.
Solutions:
The GPS Expander draws significant current from the eLogger. When the eLogger is powered by a higher voltage pack, such
as an 8s or larger pack, or a pack above 30 volts, the eLogger’s regulator may shut off after a short period when used with the
GPS. Please use our “Battery Backup Harness”, part number CAB-BAT-BACK, to provide supplemental power to the
eLogger, if you encounter this issue.
